Ha, @ CentOS they decded to release the armhfp-epel, that’s the good news.
The Problem however we (I) made a simple package(GitHub - markVnl/nethserver-arm-epel: NethServer YUM epel repo configuration for armhfp) which writes the epel.repo configuration of the (until now officially unreleased) repository and provide epel-release to match X86_84.
I need some time to think of a good solution for this, this will be over the weekend.
As a workaround you may move the offending file out of the way and run the update again:
yum clean all
mv /etc/yum.repos.d/epel.repo /etc/yum.repos.d/epel.ns
yum update
yum makecache
And check if a cache for the epel repository is created during the makecache proces…
Calling some help troops here for a definitive solution: (sorry @davidep your my goto adviser whin it come to repository management…)
How to automatically swap nethserver-arm epel.ns7.armhfp with epel-release-7-12.noarch ?
The package should not be there!!
After installing epel-release-7-12.noarch in point to repositoru=ies which don’t exist for armhfp
cat /etc/yum.repos.d/epel.repo

Will ping the (centos) arm-mailing list to figure this out…
